Description
I wrote this song two weeks ago for Airport Seven to play at our Occupy Wall Street benefit show at Goodbye Blue Monday in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The music is the demo I gave to the band to work from - all live except the drum loops. The vocals I just recorded today with a lost voice from yesterday's rally in Times Square. The picture above was taken by a woman I handed my camera to as she was standing on a higher perch. The field recordings are lifted off of video I have been shooting. This all just came together in the last hour - time is really tight these days - so it's pretty rough - but that's sort of the point. Play loud - mastered a little low.
Thanks for taking time to listen.

Lyrics
99% are sleeping in the park
99% are marching in the street
99% are texting in the dark
99% are taking all the heat
1% are lying in their satin sheets
1% are building Noah's golden arc
1% are sleeping while they profit from their greed
soon the 1% will wake up in the dark
Today the sun is shining on the 99%
Listen to the voices - voices of dissent
99% are marching in the street
99% are texting in the dark
99% are taking all the heat
1% are lying in their satin sheets
1% are building Noah's golden arc
1% are sleeping while they profit from their greed
soon the 1% will wake up in the dark
Today the sun is shining on the 99%
Listen to the voices - voices of dissent
